Title: Sampling device for liquid samples
Inventor: GERSTLE VOLKER
IPC: G01N27/327
Filed: 2003-05-02
Abstract: A device for sampling liquid samples is provided comprising a capillary-active channel, a sampling site, and a determination site. The capillary-active channel is configured for transporting a sample from the sampling site to the determination site. The capillary-active channel is substantially formed by a carrier, a cover and an intermediate layer located between the carrier and cover. The carrier protrudes beyond the cover in the area of the sampling site. The intermediate layer is displaced towards the back in the direction of the determination site in the area of the sampling site so that the carrier as well as the cover protrude beyond the intermediate layer. The device allows sample to be applied from above onto the exposed area of the carrier in the area of the sampling site and also allows sample to be applied from the side.

Abstract: Beim erfindungsgemässen Verfahren werden zwischen einem Eingangs-Netzknoten und einem Ziel-Netzknoten in einem mehrere Netzknoten aufweisenden, paketvermittelnden Kommunikationsnetz jeweils Datenpakete über verschiedene, die Netzknoten verbindende, Verbindungswege übermittelt. Multipath-Übertragungswege werden dadurch ermittelt, dass zuerst mindestens zwei disjunkte Übertragungswege zwischen Eingangs- und Zielnetzknoten ermittelt werden. Dann werden zwischen den in diesen disjunkten Übertragungswegen enthaltenen Netzknoten zumindest teilweise direkte Übertragungswege in Richtung Ziel-Netzknoten eingerichtet derart, dass sich von einem Netzknoten eines disjunkten Übertragungsweges jeweils mindestens zwei Wege in Richtung Ziel-Netzknoten ergeben. Und drittens werden zwischen den verbleibenden Netzknoten der disjunkten Übertragungswege zumindest teilweise weitere, über andere Netzknoten führende Übertragungswege in Richtung Ziel-Netzknoten eingerichtet.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method and system to detect hysteresis/unstable regions of multi-section lasers. The method comprises the steps of obtaining a first set of measurement values for the output of the laser diode by increasing a first current through a range of values in a positive direction, increasing a second control current by a step, obtaining a second set of measurement values for the output of the laser diode by decreasing the first control current through a range of values in a negative direction, and increasing a second control current by a step. The process is repeated until a sufficient range of the second control currents has been used to provide resultant data which can then be processed in order to identify regions of hysteresis of the laser diode.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for determining expectancy ranges with which echoes from a level envelope curve produced by a level measuring instrument (10) are associated. The temporal behaviour of past echo data is taken into account during the determination of said expectancy ranges. Due to the fact that the expectancy ranges have a pre-determinable width, it can be established, with pre-determinable probability, whether an echo associated with one such range   whether it be a level echo or a spurious echo   has been correctly allocated or not to said range. If, for example, a certain expectancy range has been predicted for a level echo, it can be concluded, with pre-determinable probability, that an echo falling in said expectancy range is actually a level echo. The invention also relates to an evaluation device (20) for carrying out said method, to a computer program, and to a computer program product containing instructions for carrying out the inventive method.

Abstract: Injection molding method and apparatus for ejecting a molded plastic article from a mold. A lifting structure and/or step is provided with a lifting portion which is configured to contact substantially one half of an end of the molded plastic article along a line substantially perpendicular to the lifting direction. Since the molded plastic article is lifted by its end, the article does not have to be solidified at its interior, thus allowing earlier removal of the article from the mold, reducing cycle time. A tapered surface forms an acute angle with respect to the lifting portion to form a tight seal with the mold, preventing leakage. Preferably, the neck ring engages only an outer circumferential portion of the molded plastic article during a majority of a mold opening stroke.
